Halloween See Saw Swap Reveal

Today is my big reveal day for the see saw swap.  It has been a great learning process for both my partner, Sharon, and myself.   We participated in the swap that Michele from Quilts From My Crayon Box  put together this year.  Thank you to Michele for hosting the swap and hooking Sharon and I up.  Sharon and I swapped the block back and forth each month from April to October and it was a great growing experience for us.  Each month you have a plan for your block, and when you get it back from your partner, you have to re-think your next move.  Talk about a monthly challenge.  I am sure I did the same thing to Sharon. It was also great to see it change and marvel at what was added each month.  Sharon whose blog is at            Sewn Seabee's Crafty and Vintage Musing loves wonky and hoochy and story quilting and added elements to my wall hanging I would never have dreamed fit in and it LOOKS GREAT.  You can check out her project at the link above when she reveals her project .  She added the folk house at the top and I love how it looks like the house in the distance that the scarecrows belong to.  She also added all the candy and trick or treat border on the outside so I couldn't help myself and added the Trick or Treat signs on it to go with the theme.  I love how I could never have dreamed of this quilt alone and yet the two of us were able to work together and create such a unique piece that I will treasure for years.  Thanks Sharon!!!  My daughters are already fighting over who will inherit this beauty. They will have to wait many years while I enjoy it in my home.  Thanks again!!!
